Based on your later, slightly cryptic reply in this thread, I gather you
are hoping that HttpResponse is acting as a streamable pipe back to the
browser. This isn't correct. You create an HttpResponse instance and
when you return from your view, Django will send all of the content back
to the user in one go. Nothing happens until you return from the view.
If you want to implement something streamable for Comet purposes, you'll
need to implement your own, slightly lower-level interaction with the
webserver and the downstream client. Django doesn't have built-in
support for that.
